239 What’s It Like to Have a Low EQ Boyfriend

Isabella had actually decided to be more proactive to make Joseph and her closer, so she thought that more private space should be created for them to improve their understanding of each other. But it didn’t occur to her that the opportunity was not good.

“Are you coming back late tonight?”

Joseph, who had a low EQ, didn’t understand Isabella’s efforts.

“Yes, very late, or I won’t be back.”

Isabella came up with a new idea. She thought that since Joseph didn’t know how to hit on a girl, she would take the initiative in flirting with him. Thus, she said, “It’s a remote place, and it’s fearsome at night.”

“Then, must pay attention to safety since you go there alone.”

“...”

The answers to the question “what’s it like to have a low EQ boyfriend” on the internet came to Isabella’s mind. She thought that she was really qualified to answer that question.

“What’s the matter?” Joseph saw Isabella’s depressed expression and added, “If you are really afraid, I could find two bodyguards to follow you.”

.....

“There is only one vacant room. If your bodyguards go with me, does it mean they will sleep in the same room with me?” Isabella reminded Joseph again.

“It’s okay. I’ll arrange two female bodyguards for you.”

“...”

Isabella was completely defeated.

“No, thanks. I’m afraid that your bodyguards will scare that uncle.”

Isabella laid down gloomily with her back facing Joseph. Joseph looked at the backside of Isabella’s head and smiled. Then, Joseph turned off the lights and pulled Isabella into his embrace.

...

“OK! Good job, everyone!”

The next day, Isabella successfully completed her shooting in the morning and said goodbye to grips.

Platt stood out of the shooting field clearly with his colorful hair. He looked at Isabella pitifully and said, “Isabella, why did you blacklist me...?”

Isabella was speechless. “It was a fat-finger mistake. I will add you back later.”

“You had too many fat fingers yesterday, didn’t you? I think you also blacklisted me.”

Lukas said to Isabella and came closer to her. Isabella was instantly embarrassed and said, “Fat-finger mistakes.”

“Director Lee just won a Best Director and intends to buy drinks. Don’t you come?”

Miles came over and said to them with a sweet smile.

“Miles, you did a really good job today!” Isabella greeted with a smile and said, “I would pass it. I’m going on a long journey today and I’m in a hurry.”

Lukas looked at Isabella and asked, “A long journey? Where are you going?”

“To visit an uncle.”

Isabella answered, “He lives in Green Hill. There is only one bus to get there this morning. I have to leave immediately.”

Lukas nodded. Then he looked at Miles and said, “I also have something to do. Please relay my words to Director Lee that I will treat him next time!”

Miles smiled with her charming eyes scanned Lukas and Isabella. She said softly, “Alright, I’ll take my leave.”

“Goodbye, Miles!”

Isabella said goodbye to Miles and packed up her bag. Lukas asked Isabella directly, “Is that person related to the explosion case of the year?”

Isabella nodded and said to Lukas, “He is the only surviving person in that explosion case. My mother used to take me to see him a few times. I’ll ask him. Maybe I can find something. Bye! See you next week!”

“Isabella, where are you going? I can drive you there!”

Lukas looked at Platt’s back pestering Isabella. He thought for a moment. Then he took out his phone and sent a message to Rosy, “Rosy, I can’t have dinner with you. Director Lee treats us to have dinner.”

Then, Lukas placed his phone and quickly ran in the direction that Isabella had left.

Miles and Director Lee were sitting in a recreational vehicle in the middle distance.

Miles’s eyes were fixed on Lukas. She said to Director Lee with sweet giggles, “Lee, I had mentioned that Lukas and Isabella had a special relationship, right?”

“So what?”

Director Lee said gloomily, “Rather than being concerned about this kind of gossip, it’s better to think about how to get Isabella’s amorous photos! She found excuses to decline me all the time, no matter having a meal or discussing scripts. The shooting is about to be finished soon. Don’t tell me to give up on her. What about our matters?”

“Except for talking about the scripts and having meals, you can change your mind. Do you think all the women in the world are as stupid as me to talk about the scripts with you?” Miles crossed her arms and said angrily, not as soft as she used to.

“How to change? Do you want me to force her? To kidnap her to the hotel and take photos? I don’t want to strain at a gnat and swallow a camel. I don’t want to ruin my future completely!”

Miles suddenly smiled, “You’re right. How can we ruin our own prospects? If so desired, it should be others’ prospects...”

Miles looked at Lukas’s receding figure. She leaned over to Director Lee’s ear and said something.

Isabella tried her best to persuade Platt not to follow her. In the end, she promised Platt to have a meal together when she came back from Green Hill. She finally got rid of Platt and went to Green Hill by bus at 10:30 with the photos.

Green Hill was located in a remote place. The road was rough and bumpy all the way. It was almost one o’clock in the afternoon when Isabella reached her destination.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

The only survivor of the bombing at Slike’s Restaurant lived here. Isabella called him Uncle Wesley.

Isabella handed her present to Katherine. She was Wesley’s wife. Katherine served Isabella with a table of delicacies. Isabella happily enjoyed the food and at the same time, she holds the photos to ask Wesley about the past.

Two hours had passed before everybody noticed. It was raining outside.

“Isabella, is the big white car outside your friend’s? It’s raining. Let your friend come into the house. It’s very cold outside.”

“The big white car? I...”

Isabella walked out of the room in confusion. She saw a white multi-purpose vehicle parked not far away before her words were ended.

Isabella knocked on the car window, holding an umbrella.

Lukas lowered the window hurriedly. He rubbed his bloodshot eyes and said, “I fell asleep just now. Isabella, did you get anything about your father?”

Isabella looked at Lukas with feelings of estrangement without any words.

“I am sorry.”

Lukas realized her feelings. He rubbed his forehead and said to Isabella, “I don’t mean to track you on purpose or badger you. I just thought that it might be dangerous for you to come here alone. So, I followed you. Could you don’t care about me when I don’t exist?”

Isabella dropped her eyes. She thought for a moment and said to Lukas, “Anyway, come into the house first, Lukas.”

Lukas nodded and followed Isabella into the house sharing the umbrella.

“Isabella, is this your boyfriend?”

Wesley and Katherine said in surprise, “He looks so handsome and quite familiar to me. He also looks like a movie star.”

Lukas glanced at Isabella and wanted to explain to Wesley and Katherine, “I’m not...”

“He isn’t a movie star.”

Isabella had a grin on her face and said, “He hasn’t eaten a meal yet. I have to trouble Uncle Wesley to give him some food.”

“Isabella, you are so naughty.” Wesley laughed and said.

Wesley sat in his wheelchair and said to Kathrine with a smile, “Be quick, Kathrine. Bring them into the room and dry their clothes. The rain is so heavy. There will be no bus. Although they have a car, they need to wait until the rain stop. Let them eat something and have a rest.”
